Waterfall Adventures-All Inclusive Full-Day

Mambo was a great and knowledgeable guide! He made the experience special and was very attentive. Beauty of nature meets great guide!

This was an amazing adventure! Our driver Julian and tour guide Ian were amazing from start to finish! Pickup was timely at my hotel. We had a tiny group, myself and two others — 3 in total. When we arrived to our first waterfall destination Ian made us feel very comfortable and helped us climb down into to the pool below the waterfall. There was no pressure to jump if we didn’t want to. The next stop at the secluded beach was great as well. The fresh coconut while on the beach was a nice touch! Finally the grand finale Nauyaca waterfalls were stunning. Theres a bit of a downhill hike to the waterfall and then uphill going back but Ian did a great job navigating us throughout. Sitting in a rock and enjoying the waterfall mist felt like a dream. Swimming beneath the waterfall was fun but watch out for the strength of the current and hidden rocks on the shallow side. Amazing experience overall!

It was a magnificent experience! Ian was very explanatory and encouraged you to enjoy the place more

Every person involved in making this trip happen was LOVELY. They made everyone in the group feel safe, happy, and included as they were very considerate. The locations we visited were out of this world. I made friends on this trip that I will have for the rest of my life. The entire trip felt like a dream I never wanted to wake up from. I highly recommend you book this activity!!!

Jordon Eddie and Julian gave us the best day out! loads of laughs and really knowledgable about all things Costa Rican. The drive to the water falls was an education in itself. We had well thought out stops: Portalon waterfall to jump in (with a bit of handholding!) Playa Linda - a gorgeous unspoilt beach but watch out for the rip currents Fresh coconut water Dominical for coffee - loved it there! a bit of shopping... Nauyaca - hike and stunning waterfalls. We jumped off the rocks and had the best day!! Top 3 of trips while we were in CR!!! Thanks guys x

What a wonderful day we had on this full day tour to Nauyaca Waterfalls with our guides Jordan and Eddie. Both were super knowledgeable about the plants and animals we encountered and nothing was too much trouble for them. We had 4 stops in all during the day and we enjoyed them all. We would have appreciated a little longer at our coffee stop as the food and drinks were delicious. All in all we really enjoyed this trip, one of our highlights so far!

Great day at the Nauyaca waterfalls with a friendly and competent dynamic team. Worth a visit.

My girlfriend and I booked a waterfall and beach adventure with Bright Adventures at the last minute, and I’m so grateful we did. Bryan and Julian picked us up from our hotel on time at 8 a.m., and the adventure began. We spent the day touring Costa Rica off the beaten path, exploring waterways, beaches, and shops that we would not have found on our own. They took great care of us and were fun and easygoing throughout the day. We never felt rushed and were allowed to move through each experience at our own pace. Bryan was excellent at pointing out all the wildlife and nature, highlighting everything that makes Costa Rica so vibrant and unique. Staying in a tourist area and hanging out on the beach by the hotel is enjoyable, but you don’t really get to see the countryside. With Bright Adventures and Bryan and Julian as our guides, we now feel much more a part of Costa Rica. We are so happy we booked this experience and highly recommend it; you will not regret it!

We had so much fun with Eddie last week. He was cracking me up all day. Greatly enjoyed our time visiting 2 waterfalls and Playa Linda!!

My wife and I took the Full Day Tour to Nauyaca Waterfalls with Bright Adventures during our Costa Rica holiday and I cannot express my gratitude to tour guides Eddie, Bryan, and Julio! They made the experience truly amazing! They offered interesting local insights, and went above and beyond to make sure everyone had a great time. Pick-up at our Manuel Antonio area hotel was punctual and information for our small group was clearly presented. The excursion started with a trip to the Portalon waterfall. People jumped off of 2 different heights into the river. There was never any pressure to jump if you didn't want too. No other tour groups were there. From there we drove to Playa Linda, a long, completely undeveloped beach. It was stunning and there were only a handful of other local people there, nothing like the crowds in MA. We were offered fresh coconut water during our hour long stay. I just wish we could have been there longer, but this was a waterfall tour after all. From there it was off to Nauyaca Waterfall Nature Park. The dirt road was steep and a little rough going up into the mountains. We had a nice authentic Costa Rican lunch at the welcome center before beginning our hike. The Bright Adventures tour includes the 4×4 Pickup Option which allows you to skip the longer hike to the falls. A definite plus! The hike down to Nauyaca Waterfall is steep but even in the rain it felt safe. Now this is where I will forever be thankful to Bright Adventures. My wife had sprained here ankle before the trip and the injury was not fully healed. On the trail going down to the waterfalls, our tour guide Bryan, walked was us every step of the way and offered a literal shoulder for her to lean on. There was never any pressure to go faster. We decided it was best to leave early since it would take us longer to climb back, and the owner Eddie sent Julio with us. He was a constant source of encouragement and unending support. I am beyond grateful to all three of them! Thank you! After the Nauyaca Waterfall we stopped in Dominical for coffee and snacks before heading back to Manuel Antonio/Quepos. Even when there were "paradise problems," Eddie and the team handled them quickly and professionally. The smaller group allowed for much more individual attention. It was a long day, but so worth it! If you have any questions, just send them an email. They always responded quickly. I also suggest making sure you have water shoes that are good for hiking and don't slip on wet rocks. I highly recommend Bright Adventures and I wish we could have taken other tours with them!! Given how much they did for us, the least I can do is leave this review. I am confident that they are willing to help anyone else enjoy their Costa Rican vacation just the same!
